A leading Bulgarian cultural site - the Rila Monastery - is taking a revolutionary step in presenting its historical heritage through the introduction of modern digital technologies. The new multimedia exhibition offers an exceptionally innovative approach to exploring the architectural and historical features of the monument.

Visitors can now immerse themselves in rich history through interactive 3D models, large-scale digital projections, and multilingual audio guides. This modernization aims to make the cultural experience more accessible and attractive to tourists from different age groups and nationalities.

Statistical data confirms the success of the innovation - since the beginning of July 2025, the tourist flow to the monastery has increased by an impressive 20% compared to the previous period. The site's management, in collaboration with the Ministry of Culture, plans to expand similar digital initiatives to other significant Bulgarian historical landmarks.
